During the Great Patriotic War, Soviet intelligence established itself as the most effective among all its fellow competitors. But our scouts were people too. Yes, extraordinary people, but not without their weaknesses and vices. They were not elusive and invulnerable, they made mistakes that cost them as much as the sappers. Often they lacked professionalism and skills, but all this comes with experience. And to gain this experience and survive in Nazi Germany, where the strongest counterintelligence agencies in the world operated, was very difficult. How was it? Read about it in our book.
